Joseph f. Hamilton, printer Of
Waco, Tex, has fallen heir to an es-
tate, the amount of which is two millions
Of dollars and perhaps three. It
seems that in 1850 two brothers, Hora.
ito j. and William Hamilton, left Ohio
for California When they arrived at
St. Louis William. being a printer, stop.
ped and went to work on the old Globe,
where he held cases for several years.
Horatio went on to California, and going
into mining, accumulated large for
tune. He died at Orodville, Butte
County. in April last, leaving no heirs,
and never having been married as fal
as can be ascertained. William Hamil-
ton, after u few years, went to Cape
Girardeau, Mo-, be established the Ar
gus newspaper. He went to Texas in 1871
and setlledin Houston Afterward he died
at Terrell, Tex, leaving one son, Joseph

Trusts.

In law trust is an estate or property
held by an individual called Trustee
for the benefit of some other individual
or individuals. The property is decided
to the trustee who manages it for the
actual owner and deeds it back when
required. There are many cases where
a trustee is required as in the case of
insolvent estates, and property left with
no real owner who can leagally man
age it.
But what is the meaning of 'sugar
trust, an ''oil trust lumber trust,
etc, etc. 1t is simply euphemism for
pool, monopoly, or swindle. The pro-
ducers of some necessary article COM
bine, agree to limit the production of the
article to a certain amount per annum,
and fix the price. Small concerns that
are not in the pool are either bought
out or frozen out. Then the ''trust"
has it all its own way.
Everybody is familiar with the Stand
ard Oil monopoly. Coal is manipulated
in about the same way. There is
scarcely an article indispensable to the
people upon which combination has
not been effected. A short time ago the
envelope makers combined, and the
consequence is that we are now paying
about fifty per cent more for the same
article that costs the manufacturers the
same money. A salt trust and sugar
trust have been formed within few
weeks
1t is time to call halt in the trust"
business. The matter is one for imme-
date and effective legislation. The
Interstate Commerce law, though
very imperfect piece of legislation, has
at least demonstrated the practicability
of the national government taking hold
of these great monopolies and saying,
Thus far shalt thou 90, and no farther. :"
The surest way to secure legislation that
will protect the people against the ex-
tortion of trusts and all forms of mono
poly is to see to it that the men we
choose to make our laws are not them
selves monopolists, but men whose
sympathies are with the people who are
oppressed by Them

In many localities Hoods Sarsapar-
lila is in such general demand that it is
the recognized family medicine. Peo-
pie write that "the whole neighborhood
is taking it, etc. Particularly is this
true of Lowell, Mass, where 1t is made
and where more of Hoods Sarsaparilla
is sold than of any other sarsaparilla
or blood purifier. 1t is the great reme-
dy for debility. scrofula, dyspepsia,
billiousness, or any disease caused by
impure state or low condition of the
blood. Give it trial.

General Assembly was 702, 924 and the
number of members in arrears 26,753.
This made the apparent mem bership
of the order, as then reported, 729, 677.
The total number in good standing on
July 1st, 1887, was in round numbers
49,. 900. The nearly $4,000 in arrears
made the membership of the order $685.
600 on that date, an appearant de-
crease of about $4,000 members.
Members of the order are recommended
in one Of the reports presented to refuse
to purchase goods from many firms,
whose names are given, on account of
their opposition to the order. During
the sessions it transplred that the Con-
vention was composed Of hostile fac

ers of the HERALD will be pleased
to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages. and

A GOOD APPETITE Is essential to
good health; but at this season it is often
lost, owing to the poverty or impurity
of the blood, arrangement of the di-
gestive organs, and the weakening eff

for creating an appetite, toning the di-
gestion and giving strength to the
whole system. Now is the time to take
it. Be sure to get Hoods Sarsaparilla.
